You create a temporary magical cord linking your hand with a weapon. As part of the action used to cast this spell, you make a melee attack with a weapon you are holding. This attack must be against one creature within the spell’s range, otherwise the spell fails. On a hit, the target suffers the attack’s normal effects. Hit or miss the weapon returns to your hand and the spell ends.

This spell’s damage increases when you reach higher levels. At 5th level, the attack deals an extra 1d4 force damage to the target. The force damage rolls increase again by 1d4 at 11th level and 17th level.
